i'm extremely amused by my own reaction to certain aspects of stage shows bc i saw a production of newsies and pulitzer was DAMN good like he very much ate that scene where they corner jack kelly in the office before the rally, absolutely legendary acting however it also meant that i wanted to knock his teeth in.
like "fuck you you're doing a great job i'm gonna rearrange your organs well done"
#not kpop#shut up vic#god i love newsies and number one this crutchie was hot number two this jack fucking KILLED IT in santa fe#number three pulitzer made me want to commit a violence number four there was a background newsie who looked 100% stoked to be there#(stole the show for me tbh)#number FIVE MISS MEDDA WAS FUCKING HOT AND KILLED HER SCENES#number six spot conlon was played by a woman in a brightass red shirt she had like four lines and nailed all of them#(cannot convey the whiplash i gave myself when they first referred to spot as 'she' in the show)#number seven the blocking during the 'CHEESE IT IT'S THE BULLS' sequence had the newsies scatter into the audience chased by a cop#while crutchie gets blasted onstage; except for jack who gets halfway into the audience then turns around and vaults back onstage to help#only to get chased off by one of the delanceys#i cannot describe the absolute wonderful chest giddiness that blocking gave me#number eight the orchestra was visible onstage so they were given costumes and the conductor's dress was fucking COOL#+ medda interacts with them during her first scene which was very exciting#bonus is when davey handed les a cup during the first diner sequence and he tips it upside down immediately#and then gives the audience a look like 'well great what do i do with this smh' and stuck it on a table#(he's sitting on the floor while the other newsies do plot sialogue above him)#thought that was a fun lil detail#also there was a bit during the first chase with snyder where i thought davey was going to leap across a distance that i was pretty sure#he was not gonna be able to jump but then he vaulted over the backside of the set instead#what's more is during the world will know davey had his newsie bag over his right shoulder when everyone else had it over the left#and tbh the actor probably just put it over the wrong shoulder but i choose to believe it's bc at the start of that number#he's not really a newsie like still doesn't fit in (while les took to it like a fish to water)#but during some of the choreo the newsies take off and put back on their bags and davey put it on the left shoulder like the rest of them#and i choose to believe it was intentional to symbolize that he was accepting his place among the newsies#not just 'he put it in the wrong shoulder' THAT'S THE MAGIC OF THEATRE BABY
